Hi folks!
I want to purchase a Back Protection Gear..but there are many different types. Big hard, small etc.
1. Is such a protection really useful?
2. Is it comfortable enough for a whole Skiingday?
3. Which type and/or brand is good and why?
thanx a lot

dude I used to ski with one and they are stupid shit. not worth it at all. I could see for racing because you falling on iced out tracks and could hit the gates fuckin hard or for skiercross. Get a good helmet and your fine. This isn't moto cross where landing on snow. if you do get hurt then so be it, but back straps are gay.
sacrifice, to some its just a word, to others it is a code, what matters is the colony, he is willing to live for the colony, fight for the colony, die for the colony.

Back brace? Are you gay? He's talking about back protection for hucking cliffs and big shit. I use www.skeletools.com and wear a small backpack with about 4 inches of padding (sweatshirt) in it. The backpack is the easiest way to go over those pads and you can ditch it whenever. That's what I do when I huck cliffs.

go huck 40 ft. cliff and bruise or break some vertebrae. Oh wait, you probably hang out in the terrain park all day and wouldn't know what that's like. Morrison and Nobis wear it. Pretty much anybody that competes big mtn. from Colorado does too. And who won the Butte finals this year? A colorado boy. Maybe you should come show us how it is done if you are soo good.
